Abstract: A bending rolls machine having the intermediate roll and shaft thereof driven from a "linking chain" by a gear located at the pivot point of a pivot member carrying the intermediate roll and shaft on the distal end of the pivot member, and the pivot-point gear being driven by another intermeshed engaged gear, and the two spaced-apart rolls being driven through a link-chain drive, and there being push buttons requiring pressure to continue to drive the rolls forwardly or alternately reversedly rotatably, and alternate automatic-run buttons for continuing to drive once initiated, and an emergency-stop lever-button to over-ride other buttons.
